They were boys! (Robb Stark, Game of Thrones)

And that Watcher still cried for mercy after what he allowed to happen...he was one poor excuse for a Northerner.

No, that was cruel. What he was supposed to do, kill his superiors and his lord?

The guy participated in killing two injured boys...and you say his sentence was cruel?

well, if they really made him do it and he wasn't brave enough to refuse... hanging seems like a exaggerated punishment for that.

Sentencing him to hang meant that he was unworthy of dying by the sword wielded by the King Of The North, so Robb was being overly generous for Rickard despite his terrible crimes.

Blackfish is one of my favorite characters. One of the only true good men in the series.

Yeah but Karstark ate it well. A true warrior

@@Afrimusican especially since The blackfish is like 6'6" so Karstark must be very close to that. That's so much power going into a punch, only a true northman like Karstark could've taken that lol

@@jacksondolly3248 please.. size means fuck all compared to technique. Seen small guys knock out big guys with 1 hit. Ofc it helps but it aint even close to the most important.

@Paul Dickau i Think you would be surprised. Most of the west didnt have many martial arts untill after middle ages. But sure, some skill ofc. But my point still stands, I'd rather be a 5'5 wrestler against a 6'3 muscle beast than I wanna be the muscle beast without the skill

but those boys certainly didn't forget about him

Exactly; it makes me so mad how everyone here attacks him. He care about moral and virtue as well, not only the strategic angle

saeta I like Robb Stark and look at him as the true King in the North, and not the bastard. But honour does not win wars. Tell me which is more dishonourable. Do whatever it takes to win the war, even if it means sacrificing your virtue? OR Keep your morals and lose the war, losing everything and everyone you have sworn to protect. Your bannermen, your smallfolk, your loved ones, and your justice. Seems to me, almost every single one of Robb's decisions from here on out led them closer and closer to defeat. He was not stupid, but he could not made the better decision.

And utterly foolish

As I said in some other comment, I know about the realpolitik vs moral discussion. But then again, moral and virtue doesnt admit any discussion you either have it or you dont, and if you think killing children can go unpunished for WHATEVER strategic reason, Im afraid you have been rooting for the wrong side all along.

If he was right and just he would of kept his word to Walder and married his daughter. If Eddard was truly right and just then he wouldn't of tried to have Littlefinger buy the gold cloaks for him.

they made Robb too good in the series, his only real triumph was when he captured Jaime in the Whispering woods, even that was awful by sending thousands of his men for slaughter as distraction to Tywin....Edmure was better in the books, even wiser than Robb and they made him look like an idiot in the series...

@@angelcap4371 That was strategic because by gaining Tywin's heir, they had leverage. Without Jaime, Robb had nothing over Tywin. He had less men, less resources, less experience, commanded less respect from the lords of Westeros. He captured Jaime, and then won every battle. Both of those are triumphs. Robb was a good leader. An inexperienced one, but he was good. Too honorable, just like Ned Stark. Just like Jon Snow.

@@ericksantos4555 agreed, which is why I commended him for that...it was...Oxcross was good as well, but that was due to GreyWind incidentally picking up a secret trail and killing the Lannister army while they sleep...though its war, so I give him that too..but he made many blundered decisions...he's more like a good field commander than a king actually.

Robb and Jon both tried to be like Ned in a lot ways but it's deeper than that since in the books it talks about how the Starks have always been the honor of the North and also Robb is young so of course they would try and disobey him. Cause if Need was alive and gave the order to not touch the boys it would have not gone the same way as it did for Robb.

@@deelove2882 it went out of hand when Catelyn freed Jaime, which was why Edmure sent a bounty on Jaime. It wasn't Robb like what Roose said, it was Edmure who had him hunted for a reward, as Edmure believed the Lannisters wont keep their word and to appease the Kastarks...Edmure was way wiser in the books.

I would have loved to see more stark interactions. rob and ned didn't even talk to each other in the entire series

@@ericaeva4408 Ok gotcha, I didn't realize he was in that movie. He is a great actor though.

I will always remember Game of Thrones for it’s 5 first seasons. After that, the plot armour becomes clear and the story rushes for the ending and skips the character developpement and great storytelling that the first seasons had.

Too sad that others had thicker plot armour. Robb could have become the true King North deserves and a true tactician. Give him 100.000 dothraki 2 dragons the unsullied Northmen and Wildlings and he would conquer they Known world.

@@nattrem7126 doesn't help George still hasn't finished the book series. Kind of difficult to keep the same pacing when the source material ran dry and now it's ad lib time

True..they seem to be rushing to the end. Less story plot. I mean look how the Night king died...so un eventful. Sure it was unexected but it was also disappointing

@@1987StoneAge that's why I don't give much credit to the series. It got me to the books but darn they have a huge amount of source material to use from it. 3rd and 4th book had so many new characters and sub plots that could last a couple of seasons. They went and took ideas from the books and change them drastically. That's what I don't like from it. You can choose to ignore pieces of it but not change the whole point

Such outrage and fury.

So much so that even Karstark looks shocked

the irony is that Rob isn't that much older than those boys.

Nothing Robb the boy said was ever badass, little 14 yr old wimp lost the entire North, lost his brothers, lost his mother, lost his fiance and unborn child, lost everything and died crying for mommy 😂😂😂😂 Little Robby Stark was the WORSE king in history of the North, lost the only war he fought killed by his own bannerman cause he was such a wanker 😂😂😂

don't count seeing him towards the end, they've cut and excluded so many characters for the sake of production and tv audiences are more casual than book readers especially when it comes to ASOIAF

Yeah at this point I'm pretty sure he's dead at this point. They wrote off other important characters with rather quick deaths that are shoehorned like (SPOILER ALERT) Olenna's defeat at High garden.

Collin Lee Hell yeah! That shit was clean bro!

They had Cersei's son for exchange and they let Karstark kill him...what a dumbasses, Cersei would exchange Sansa for him lol

:DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD

Tommen wasn't there....

One of the Lannister boys shown was the same actor who played Tommen

The boy did a god job acting so they cast him for adult Tommen later

He wasn’t disrespecting Ned tho…he was disrespecting Robb and that’s why the Blackfish punched him

Blackfish also struck Karstark because he murdered Tully soldiers that were guarding the Lannister boys. "In war you kill your enemies!" It was more apparent that Rickard Karstark didn't care who he killed at this point

The respect that Ned commanded is also what got him killed and decimated his house.

No, he called the king a boy.

@@emmanuelsilvera8032 And that same respect is what's motivating the northern lords to backstab the Boltons and place one of his kids as the lord of Winterfell, but it's also motivating northern clansmen from the remote mountains to answer the call of a southern lord and march through the deep snows of winter just to rescue his "daughter". Hugo Wull: "I would sooner have my men die fighting for THE NED'S little girl than alone and hungry in the snow, weeping tears that freeze on there cheeks. No one sings songs off men like that. As for me, I am oldd, and this will be my last winter. Let me bathe in Bolton blood before I die. I want to feel it spatter across my face when an axe bites deep into a Bolton skull". Do you hear Lannister soldiers making speeches like that? Do you hear of Bannermen of the Westerlands marching to King's Landing to save Tywin's little girl when she was imprisoned by the High Sparrow? Even Jaime abandonded her.

Jon Twat Gendry was??

@@Mrbadwolfguy no, the one before the invader said so

I feel so bad for Edmure. He was a good lord that genuinely loved his people and did his best to help Robb, but Robb was a bit of a dick to him.

I mean Robb was trying to win the war and had a strategy his own people kept undermining which was close to actually working before the Red Wedding, Edmure just didn't get strategy

lordlossize GG How was he a hypocrite exactly?

Squirrelcake he broke his promise and married the girl because he had physical relations with her. That's honorable in its own way. And breaking a promise and marrying the one you love isn't even close to as evil as murdering innocent kids.

He should have run back to winterfell. Now he has his head on a spike.

David Martinez the boys didnt do anything to him

Difference 'tween vengeance and justice.

What about the boys who were sons of the men that were fighting for him ? The lannisters were boys but were in the battlefield, under the lannister banners

Its not real mate

That's some fucking SJW view on this. He should have sided with the Northmen instead of the weak southerners

That's the view of many people in conflicts sadly.

Can you blame him? The whole war was started because the Lannisters killed his liege lord and kidnapped said lord’s family, then the Lannister’s go and kill his sons as well. THEN Catelyn frees the very man who killed said sons. I’m not saying what Lord Karstark did was right, but I definitely understand it.

I do also want to add my own interpretation that it was, for a split second, when Karstark realized what he had actually done. That, despite them being Lannisters, they were boys that had done no wrong except be born Lannisters. That he had just killed two defenseless children in a dishonourable way. That Robb was able to temporarily shock him into that line of thinking due to his pure emotion and whatever loyalty he still commands Of course, it goes away in a moment as its then replaced with him realising that Robb didnt hate the Lannister name as much as he did, as you said, which then overpowers the initial. So it's 3 types of shock in 1 -that he just killed 2 boys -that Robb made him feel regret for Lannisters -That Robb doesnt hate all Lannisters. I'm mostly reaching here but I think it adds a little extra layer.

A lot like Jet in ATLA, sadly.

During this time GOT was the greatest show of all time. Now it's gone so far down hill i barely recognize it.

@@Androidbrotherhood1 The Truth is that the wars between the north and Kings Landing allies was much more intense than those night king-zombie bullshit.I always said that.Finally someone who shares the same opinion (: Lets hope that now that night king is dead the show becomes again Game Of Thrones.

J. Cobb is that a 16 year old? nah brah

Gandalf Grey the character in the books is 16. I guess they made him older in the show

Meandrous Phoenix i think hes like 22 in show

That's the thing most of the people complaining about Robb in these comments seem to have forgotten. Catelyn not only directly prompted the murder of the two Lannisters by helping Jaime escape -- she simultaneously eliminated the only leverage Robb had over Tywin Lannister. Catelyn Stark ranks right behind Littlefinger and Tywin Lannister as the cause of House Stark's downfall.

True but you could also argue Robb drove Catelyn to this. If Robb had listened to Catelyn and never sent Theon back to Pyke, they never would've lost Winterfell and Bran and Rickon wouldn't be (presumed) dead. I don't deny that Catelyn definitely screwed up releasing Jamie but she's a mother who just lost her husband, father, (presumably) two sons, (presumably) daughter, and her other daughter is a hostage. She's definitely not thinking clearly when she released Jamie.

@@DrRockso1987 well theon was a good boy always, he stood for Robb with all his heart, it was natural for Robb to trust him and truly even we the audience didn't doubt him at that point either, did we? Theon's father is the one to blame for turning the boy against his brother (by heart)

@@DrRockso1987 war requires pragmatism. The best generals and tacticians were men. This is for a reason.

@@chiraggoyal6265 Yeah but it was still short-sighted on Robb’s part. Despite how brotherly Theon was to Robb, he was still, in essence, a hostage. Even Ned knew that he would have to keep Theon close (at least in the books he did). At best, they should’ve sent someone else to treat with Balon. Then they know if that person doesn’t return then Balon most likely rejected the deal and he can’t be trusted. But that’s what makes Robb human. He made mistakes as did Catelyn. And for the record, I agree. Balon is a jackass. “I’m gonna start a SECOND rebellion after the first one failed so horribly and cost me all my sons!” Ugh…

He really put his back into that slug

Sorry. I hit thumbs down by mistake. Good observation

Or your Honour. For all of those you have sworn to protect.

AlabamaSoldier Well said, bro.

It would have been honourable to offer Karstark the black or his head. He should have given him until after the war to decide, then held him as a hostage to keep his men. Ned was honourable, but knew war. I'm sure he would've made the right choice. But then again Karstark probably wouldn't have killed hostages if Ned was commanding. It was his stupid pride. Karstark mocked him so Robb wanted to look tough in front of the other lords.

Cersei does everything to protect 'her kingdom' at the end of the show - is she a preferable ruler to Robb Stark?

@@burningsickle No she doesn't. She does everything to protect *herself.* That's why she's the most despicable character in the show... after Daenerys.

Him being 15 makes his stupidity make way more sense

He had good advisors though Edmure his wife and Catelyn all told him the right thing and he ignored it. His honor is what lost him the war.

​@@thegreatid3595 If in the TV show he had been honorable from the beginning he would not have broken his pact with the Freys. I also think that executing Karstark wasn't entirely a bad decision.

@@blacklight4720lol because drowning a whole family and their people in a gold mine. Then when a songs written about it having it played when you murder a whole family at a wedding. Yeah can’t see why people think he’s blood thirsty. He’s not. But he wants people to fear him. And the Lannister mainly because his father was so weak. And if his father hadnt been so weak there would have been no rebellion and the reynes probably would still be alive.

@emmy lite It was a VERY good show, yes. Cause none of the characters are perfect. They all have flaws and, at least for most of the series, those characters' actions and decisions have real consequences in their world. It's a bit of depth and realism rarely seen in the fantasy genre on this scale so, yes. Great show.

@emmy lite To me it actually does make sense that Robb was a tactician genius and never lost a battle, but made one mistake that led to his downfall. The reason for this is battle strategy is a mental game, one which he was well trained and prepared for, on top of having a natural talent at it, one could even say he was prodigy in that area. He was intelligent in battle maneuvers, he had a very logical and mathematic brain. His decision to execute Karstark came from his feelings, not his logic. He acted on impulse, rage and emotion. He wasn't entirely emotionally mature at that point because he would have only been around 15 years old. That's a lot of pressure for someone that young. So to me, it makes perfect sense. But at any rate, if you have a problem with it, then take it up with the author of the book.

@emmy lite Lol Okay. You're just arguing now just to argue. If you hate the show so much don't watch it and shut up about it. I think the show WAS good and my opinion shouldn't bother you so much. I won't waste anymore of my time on this petty disagreement.

Innocent well... they were PoW and members of an enemy army. But they were not guilty of other mans crimes for sure.

@@ShadowwingMD As if they would've had the choice to not accompany the Lannisters to war. They didn't kill anyone. They were innocent prisoners. Their only "crime" was being Lannisters. And that was enough for the Karstarks to kill them in their cells.

And not all men should be treated equal under the law, especially a man who provided you with 2,300-4,000 soldiers (throughout the war). lol.

nodinitiative and also lost two of his sons in the battlefield.

It was a dumb move but i get why you would want to kill a guy who murdered 2 litle boys. Dumbasses who murder kids just because their own kids were murdered deserve to die.

Frek This was of course Catelyn's fault. She showed defiance against King Robb and this embolden the Karstarks to do this stupid move. Jaime killed his son. He deserves vengeance and she denied it. If Robb had just allowed Lord Karstark to kill just one of the children or even let him imprison Catelyn himself, then maybe Lord Karstark would have respected King Robb. Now because of Robb thinking with his penis, he lost almost 4000 men (The Freys) and because of his mother, 2300 men (The Karstarks). Robb Stark should have just married the Frey girl and marched his army to the Vale and compel the Lords of the Vale to honour the memory of Ned Stark and join his cause. I bet the lords of the Vale would just ignore that crazy bitch Lysa. Honour means a lot to them. Especially if its a war to avenge Lord Jon Arryn and Lord Eddard Stark.

Letting him kill one of the children would have been just as bad. Rob wanted to kill the Karstarks because they killed two young innocent boys. Sure it cost him the war in hindsight but still wouldnt feel right to have a bunch of kidkillers in your army.

Everyone was great, even the kids. ‘Cause British actors are wayyyyy better.

The vid above shows again that he's an A-class actor Tobias Menzies: Edmure Tully. To play such a stunted fool is a LOT harder then you think. Especailly a fool who thinks he's pretty good.

Mark Lewis Jones: "Very good as Shagga, son of Dolf, not so good on the directing/editing to give him so féw scenes'. Jones is of the same level as Dance or Rigg. Nikolai Koster-Waldau: Jaime fookin Lannister. Underwent an even greater character-transformation then Theon Greyjoy. Performed it admirably! Gwendoline Christie; Brienne of Tarth.

Carice van Houten: Lady Melisandre. Underrated again. People still quote her 'The night is dark and full of terrors'. Ben Crompton: 'Dolorous' Edd. The guy was as hilarious as he was serious, as he was a true and loyal friend to Jon. Kristian Niarn: HODOR!!!... hodor hodor...hodor!...hodor hodor... hodor! Kristofer Hivju: Tormund Giantsbane. Beast of a character. beast of an actor. Anton Lesser: Qyburn... seriously that guy gave you the creeps!!...brr!! Donald Sumpter: Maester Luwin. Shame he didnt get more scenes. Pilou Asbaek: Euron Greyjoy. Writers misdid him a bit... He played his part well though. Very clever... very insane too. James Faulkner: Randyll Tarly...You detested him for being such a horrible father to Sam. Lived and died with honor in the show. Well played mr Faulkner. Burn Gorman: Karl Tanner(of Gin Alley?)... man was hé a first-rate c*nt in the show...excellent portrayal. Clive Mantle: Greatjon Umber. Again, too little screentime, but man this fellow was enjoyable to watch! Well portrayed. Prolly a few more even, but i'd have to look up the casting list.. I recall all these names from the show, because the actors were just thát good! Its 'amazing' how the writers managed to totally 'F.U.B.A.R' the last seasons, with súch an amazing cast! So many actors that really understood their characters and stories... For 5+ seasons it was all gréat... best show of all time... Then it deteriorated... Last season(s) were more spectacle and overwhelming CGI that overshadowed the true class that made this show so great: The terrific writing and attention to detail, and the amazing Cast that went above and beyond which gave us súch a masterclass.

@@BPBrutalPenguin Because they no longer have the books to use. Now they're showing their real writing skills, which is piss poor. There's so much to cover still and they've decided to waste the budget on a small last season filled with battles and dragons. First 4 were great, 5 and 6 were decent and entertaining but you could tell it was getting a bit worse, season 7 was trash with a few great moments, nothing more

BlackKray yup it really showed with last night’s episodes with the serious plot armour and terrible ending

First 3 seasons are the best TV I have ever seen..so good

BlackKray the only two good parts of season seven were the wall coming down and the spoils of war battle.

but will grrm really be able to deliver a better ending than D&D? the books have already bloated out of control, they're not tightly written anymore. will he even ever finish?

@@silversauceran He won't.

DEY MADE MEH DO IT

I always felt Ser Barristan let down Ned when the "not king" ordered Ned , the Regent, to be arrested and murdered. Ser Barristan should have acted in that moment. And for not acting in that moment but being an honorable man, he was later slapped down by the same king.

Affan Mahdhir I also notice how they went through with the “Imbecile Edmure” idea. It’s funny because I’m the books he’s a very average and decent man. The mill incident- Robb didn’t tell him what to do and he defends his land and does good at it.

@@documentationslave397, poor Edmure had just been made a fool in nearly every scene he’s been in. Honestly the Tullys other than Catelyn and Lysa just were treated poorly in the show. The amount of screentime that was reduced for them was massive and the way Blackfish just died in season 6 was so disappointing. It’s a shame cause the casting for him was magnificent

You are just a show watcher I assume? The show's writing did Robb a disservice. I assume you mean him marrying and betraying his oath that's not how it happens in the books. In the books Robb is wounded and is suffering from news that Theon killed his brothers, Arya is thought dead, and knowing as soon as the Lannisters get what they want they will kill Sansa aswell. Jeyne Westerling (she was replaced by Talisa in the show) comforts him his in his grief and it leads to them sleeping together, Robb made a honorable choice in he decided to marry her to preserve her honor even if it sacrificed his own.

@@SkyExplosiondon’t remember ever commenting on the books but cheers I guess. The video is clearly about the show. Robb still broke his oath in the books no matter how you paint it

It's a shame that they just left us hanging like they did after season 5, but you have to respect the way they respected GRRM's vision.

Yep, he had a boner for justice, just as he had a boner for the foreign girl. Acted on his self-interest.

If my mom undermined me like that she'd be imprisoned for life. I couldnt behead her but she'd be robbed of freedom for the rest of her days. Her irrational short sighted thinking caused endless issues. Catelyn Tully is literally a plot device. She fucks shit up to get the plot moving

And be a kinslayer? I don't think you understand how much of a taboo that is in Westeros.

​@@DavidbarZeus1 Rickard Karstark was his kin

@@onlyasongoficeandfire925 Distant enough that it didn’t count. The Karstarks split from the Starks centuries before.

Except that the killers get to survive. It isn't justice in Robb eyes.

@@zteevydood870 Yeah it's not ideal justice, but it's at least some form of justice.

I would have gone further and married Karstark's daughter Alys to the second son of a loyal bannerman and make him Lord of Karhold.

Do you really think Karstark would have accepted the Watch? No, lords don't go to the Watch for crimes, only commoners do

@@DavidbarZeus1 Did you forget the original plan to punish Ned Stark for his "crimes" was to make him join the watch? So clearly lords can be punished for crimes in such a manner.

Karstark's crime pales in comparison to Catelyn's crime. Letting Jaime go was one of the dumbest decisions in the entire show and I'm even willing to include S8 in that, which was riddled with dumb decisions, one after the other. The fact that she got off with that so lightly will never stop bothering me.

@@Xylarxcode lmao, killing innocent children is worse than an act which was done with the intention of saving children. Thank god we don’t live in a world built on ur shitty morals.

@@3moor21 If they were so innocent what were they doing in prison? Robb should have immediately release d both of them after he won the battle, is it justice to keep innocent boys imprisoned? When you move with an army, you are part of the army and have to be ready for consequences *.*

@@fabmc8816 they were kept to bargain/ransom with even if they didnt do anything wrong, the lannister name alone is valuable enough to lock them up

@@droideca88 One could say the same about killing them

alive, not a live

Same. Robb was a more interesting character, and portrayed by a far superior actor.
